@potluck45 At about three months old, my daughter could only nap for longer than 30 min on me. So I held her for every nap (or wore her) until she was 14 months, when she went to daycare. I was freaking out thinking she'd never sleep there but lo and behold she slept just fine from the first...

@jgasser My husband was just gone for about 3 weeks due to work travel and Covid (we had him stay out of the house). My 5-year-old is actually totally fine with it and hasn’t changed at all, largely because I can explain to her what happened. I can tell her why dad isn’t there, when he’s coming...

@egg Thank you! How long did it last? Mine doesn’t really roll around—he’s in the same position and just cries. We’ve been doing white noise and black out curtains since birth :)

We have coslept since pretty much day 1 from the hospital. Typically I can put him down and he’ll sleep for 1-3 hours without waking up. Then I join him in bed and when he wakes, I’ll pop a boob in while I’m still laying down and he’ll eat and then go back to sleep. Lately (past week or so)...
